In his Quintessence of Socialism and The Impossibility of Social Democracy, Schaffle developed a critique of socialism which focused on the problem of incentives in large-scale collectives. His conclusion was that classical socialism and democracy were incompatible. Schaffle thus foreshadowed some of the criticisms of socialism by Ludwig von Mises and Freidrich Hayek.
